    We have a low tier propagandist in Russia who tweaked the last paragraph:

    “And then they stopped coming. Because everything became normal.”

    Jokes aside, last week he got accused of committing some kind of crime. Waiting for him to be jailed and the joke to be finished.

      Russia seems like a country where Authoritarianism has “won”, and now the USA looks like it wants to join in on that “fun”. :-|

        The US joined that club before the ink on the constitution had dried. It has never left.

            Not really… the white middle class in the US is coming down from their cozy New Deal high and realizing all the “soft power” was literally just empty propaganda. There is a good reason why the US has inspired some of the most evil events of the modern era - Putin cannot hold a candle to that.
